Algebraic Manipulation, Spatial Visualisation, Data Analysis, Measurement, Estimation
and Approximation) and Mathematical Processes (like Reasoning, Communication
and Connections, Problem solving and Heuristics, Estimation, Technology etc.) among
students at these levels.
This series has been developed and designed keeping in mind the following objectives of
the latest curriculum :
Students should :
• Enjoy learning of mathematics.
• Learn important mathematics that is much more than few formulas and mechanical
procedures of solving problems.

trigonometry, the basic content areas of school mathematics, all offer a methodology of
